This news from Computer Services: Our Internet Service Provider is currently experiencing technical difficulties, which prevents Internet connectivity from campus...

This service outage affects all external websites including the library's databases, although the UM website, ForUM, and the library catalog remain available. Although we will not get your e-mail if you're trying to reach us from off campus, remember that we can still answer some questions over the phone at (205) 665-6100. We'll post here again once the connectivity problem is resolved.

The Harbert Writing Center is hosting a reading of Montevallo's student writers this Wednesday, November 19th at 12:00.

This year's winning poets are Josh Womack for his works "The Trielegiad" and "Adieu Zeus," and Vicki Jones for her poem "You Must Be Born." The honorees for prose are Andrew Hill for "Thoughts Passing By," Matthew Lindon for "The Schism," and Abbey Davis for "Art; Defined."

The event will last for about an hour at the Writing Center, which is located in room 311, Comer Hall. Light refreshments will be served. You may RSVP for this event on Facebook.

On another note, I'd like to acknowledge the work of the Men's Soccer team. The squad's season came to an end this weekend at the NCAA South Region Tournament as they lost a close and hard-fought match to No. 11 ranked University of Tampa, 1-0. The Falcon men end the 2008 campaign with an impressive 15-6-0 record after making their third-straight NCAA Tournament. Congratulations on a great season, guys.
